UNIVERSAL PRAYER (GENERAL INTERCESSIONS)

“The harmony in which they had found themselves, thanks to original justice, is now destroyed: the control of the soul’s

spiritual faculties over the body is shattered; the union of man and woman becomes subject to tensions, their relations

henceforth marked by lust and domination. Harmony with creation is broken: visible creation has become alien and hos-

tile to man. Because of man, creation is now subject ‘to its bondage to decay.’ Finally, the consequence explicitly foretold

for this disobedience will come true: man will ‘return to the ground,’ for out of it he was taken. Death makes its entrance

into human history.”

HOLY COMMUNION

We invite all Catholics who are properly disposed (i.e., in the state of grace and having fasted for one hour before communion) to come forward in the usual way to receive Holy Communion.

All others, including our non-Catholic guests, may remain in their pews and join us in prayer. Alternatively, to participate in the communion procession and receive a blessing, come forward

in the line and cross your arms over your chest as you approach the minister. Thank you.

ABOUT TODAY’S MUSIC

Today, in the wake of the feast of Corpus Christi, we celebrate the 10th Sunday in Ordinary Time. It should be

remembered that “Ordinary Time” might be more accurately rendered as “Ordered Time”—that is, time when

we explore, through the readings, prayers, and texts of the Mass, the “ordinary” life of Jesus Christ, our Savior.

This is as opposed to the other liturgical seasons (Lent, Easter, etc.) where we celebrate a particular aspect of the

Faith. Therefore, in this time “through the year” (the exact rendering of the Latin original Tempus per Annum),

we read a great deal through the Gospels and the remainder of the bible. This Sunday, after the three great So-

lemnities in Ordinary Time which directly follow Easter (Holy Trinity, The Most Holy Body and Blood of Our

Lord Jesus Christ, and the Most Sacred Heart), we are dropped right into a relatively complex set of readings,

complete with “difficult expressions” and the allegory that so infuriated Jesus’ opponents. All the same, we also

see the Entrance and Communion Antiphons as profoundly hopeful moments in this Mass, expressing as they

do profound faith in God. While the Church (in her magisterial documents) always declares a preference for

the Latin originals of these texts, there is also permission given for vernacular adaptations of these crucial texts.

So, we make use of this permission this week for both the antiphons and Mass Ordinary in English. The season-

al Marian antiphon (in this case, Salve Regina, sung through the Solemnity of Christ the King in November) is

sung as a postcommunion at all Masses, too. While it is appointed to Compline, it is most appropriate at any

liturgy as a way of uniting ourselves to the Blessed Virgin Mary, who is the best model for the love of Jesus.
